This message will be the first message sent to 'team contacts'; it will be sent in the next 24-48 hours. *** ADDITIONAL WWW MIRROR SITE I will be posting the Penn Bowl info to <a href=http://pennbowl.tripod.com target=new>http://pennbowl.tripod.com</a> shortly; I will continue to maintain <a href=http://samerismail.tripod.com target=new>http://samerismail.tripod.com</a> as well. *** FIELD UPDATE At the moment, there are 65 teams registered, with FIVE teams on the wait list (Princeton III is currently the last team in, and Virginia the first team out). [I will send the full list of teams to all team contacts.] Also, I have received FOUR full packets, and ONE half packet. Those schools are listed on the PB11 WWW page. *** PACKET EXTENSIONS As stated before, ANY school can receive a 72-hour extension for the regular deadline provided at least half the required number of Qs are submitted by that deadline (at least 21 Qs for one team, 36 Qs for two or more teams). In addition, I have been notified that some schools, especially those on quarter systems, have finals *this* week. Regardless of how some people might feel on this issue, classes come first. Therefore: ** If your school has undergraduate finals between now and Monday, 10 December 2001, I will grant your school a ONE WEEK extension on the regular deadline. ** To get this extension, however, YOU MUST E-MAIL ME at <samer_at_...> or <pennbowl_at_...> BEFORE the deadline passes. I will not grant retroactive extensions. I will also grant one-week extensions for extenuating circumstances, again, provided requests are received in advance. *** ACCOMMODATIONS & TRANSPORTATION In addition to the info posted on the PB11 WWW site, additional travel information is available at <a href=http://www.gophila.org. target=new>http://www.gophila.org.</a> In particular, a number of hotels are offering special rates; these hotels are listed at <a href=http://www.gophila.org/accommodations/index-onenightrates.htm. target=new>http://www.gophila.org/accommodations/index-onenightrates.htm.</a> If you have any questions regarding hotels or travel in and around Philly, please e-mail me ASAP.
